The column items.ccode is 10 characters long. It references authorised values
of the type CCODE. The maximum length of an authorised value is 80 characters
long. If a CCODE is created with a value greater than 10, when it is stored for
the item it will be truncated and become either a) an invalid ccode or b) match
a different ccode!

The solution should be to increase the items.ccode column from varchar(10) to
varchar(80).

This really goes for all columns that could possibly store an authorised value.
